Full article:
It’s criminal that, after twenty years of delivering some of the most earthshakingly wondrous bass mash-ups and dub reggae grooves known to mankind, Dub Pistols are still playing mostly in medium-sized clubs when they’d sound utterly fantastic in arenas and stadiums. Their seventh album, Crazy Diamonds (no, it’s not a Pink Floyd tribute) finds them still mixing it up with merry abandon, sounding like a bunch of wide-eyed teenagers cutting loose in a Ladbroke Grove basement. Apart from the groovalicious soundscapes of cuts like La La La, Rising and Lively, there’s tasty vocal guest spots by Beenie Man, Too Many T’s, Lindy Layton and Cutty Ranks, plus a bunch of powerful political messages to absorb while you skank.
